The Message: THe Bible in Contemporary Language,Numbered Edition5
Great quality for the price. Have been looking for a supplemental message Bible, numbered edition, for the price it is great!

great Bible5
i bought this Bible for my grandma as a christmas gift. she wanted to have this version to read along at church when the preacher uses it in his sermons. i flipped thru it but didn't realize until she told me...other message Bibles all have the verses written out in paragraph form. my own Bible is this way, and it makes it hard to find a verse sometimes. but this one i bought for my grandma has everything numbered individually like other versions of the Bible. i thought that was helpful! she likes it a lot too :-)

Very Small Print3
I had already bought "the Message" Bible and loved it, but it wasn't numbered, so when I saw this one had the verses numbered, I ordered it. The print is so small, it is hard to even see the numbers, but they are there. It's o.k., I guess, and I have been using it, but I was expecting the print to be larger and the numbers to be more visable.
